1922 Stout Annual Sophomore CLASS OF 1922 LAWRENCE KUNKLE - PAULINE LILLICH - WALLACE GROTHAUS President Vice-President Secretary -Treasurer We, the Sophomores, entered upon our delightful and brilliant career at Stout in September 1920. We were the largest Freshman class that ever entered Stout and pride ourselves on being the first wearers of the Green Caps. We were a handsome and interesting group of real college students, and even the upper-classmen envied our remarkable headgear. We held our first class meeting and election October 21, 1920, and thus began our career as an organized Stout class. Although we wore our Green Caps with pride, we never gave up until we had won from our upper classmen the privilege to lay them aside. In football luck was against us and we went down to defeat; in basketball we proved our superiority and won over the Sophs; again in baseball we subdued our upper classmen; but the spirit was highest and the battle fiercest as we pulled the Sophs through the stream of water, — thus earning the privilege to lay aside the Green Caps which became ancient history. Members of our class were prominent in all school activities and athletics and we were looked upon as comers. The saddest moments of our career were when our admired classmate, Lawrence B. Larson, was drowned in the Lake. Four of our members accom- panied the body to the home of his parents at Murdock, Minnesota. In September 1921, a few days after returning from our pleasant vaca- tion previous to beginning our work as Sophomores, we re-elected our officers and were off for a busy year. Again we were dry winners in the tug-of-war and pulled the heirs of the Green Caps through the stream of water. In basketball we lost to the Freshmen after a close and hard battle. The Freshies have three more trials to lay aside the Green Caps by right of purchase, but our price is high and we see no prospects of the possible buyer. As a chain is no stronger than its weakest link, we hope to strengthen the graduate line of teachers from Stout and make it possible for Stout to be proud of the Class of 1922. 18
